[Free] Flutter: Google Sign In With Rest Api, Jwt (2024)
Flutter app that allows users to sign in with their Google accounts with REST API
Requirements
- Basic Understanding of Flutter: Learners should have a basic understanding of Flutter development, including widgets, state management, and building simple applications.
Description
In this tutorial, i will build a Flutter app that allows users to sign in with their Google accounts, leveraging a REST API built with Symfony framework for authentication and JSON Web Token management.
When a user signs in through Google, our system will check if the user already exists in our database. If not, it will create a new user account. Once authenticated, either as a new or existing user, our application will generate a JSON Web Token.
This JSON Web Token is securely stored using flutter_secure_storage and allows the Flutter app to send requests and access resources.
We will be using several essential Flutter packages:
dio for making HTTP requests to our REST API.
flutter_secure_storage Flutter Secure Storage provides API to store data in secure storage. Keychain is used in iOS.
package_info_plus to access app information.
provider for state management.
google_sign_in Flutter plugin for Google Sign-In, a secure authentication system for signing in with a Google account.
